Popis: There is a significant rise in the blood glucose level of Channa punctatus following surgical extirpation of the principal islets. The hyperglycemia persists for nearly 30 days in the isletectomized fish. A transient hyperglycemia is exhibited by the sham operated control fish also. If the isletectomized fish are force-fed, a further increase in the blood glucose level is obtained. The force feeding of normal, unoperated fish results in an alimentary hyperglycemia at about 10–24 hours post-prandial.
